About: Animals enjoy my dog and I's company. Come unsure, leave longing to return. A visit will sure turn into a playdate and lots of misses and kisses. Your pets will feel right at home because the pets here aren't pets; their family. Whether they become extended cousins, or like brother and sister, your pet will feel like home away from home with us! Your pet has plenty of space to run around and if they're up for it will do so on their walks. Each of us have our own personality and here theirs can shine, grow, and learn to be in and create harmony with the world around them.

About: Since I was a child I have had pets in my life. I am an animal lover of all types. I have cared for fish, hamsters, gerbals, cats, dogs, even reptiles. I have helped family and friends with there pets, and have a good sense of how to undertand whatvthey need. I can bath, groom, give haircuts, and feed them if and when needed. I am willing to open my home to assist families in need. I do have a full.time job, but also have family who are all wonderful and willing to help where it is needed. I am the main care taker, I make sure to work my schedule around the best interest of the pet I am caring for. Your pet will never truly be alone. I have a fenced in yard, I have a friendly chihuahua and a playful, lovable cat. I have a separate and clean space in my basement if needed giving plenty of room to run and play with plenty of toys for pets. Let me not forget my fun and loving family which includes my husband two teenage kids and my self.

“I was lucky to find this wonderful family right before heading out on vacation, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very start, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. They were reliable and stuck to the agreed schedule, which I truly appreciated. My dog a 5 month old Standard Poodle who’s a giant ball of mischief connected with them right away. It’s clear they have tons of experience and, most importantly, a genuine love for animals. I had originally booked someone else who canceled last minute with a silly excuse… but honestly, I’m glad it happened because it led me to the right people. They deserve all the stars. Highly recommend!”

“Ace was super gentle and patient with my anxious shy guy! He took a liking to Ace quickly— not the norm for my dog. Ace was communicative and took great pics of my boy. Thank you Ace!! Will 100% book again soon ☺️”

“Saktah is an amazing choice for anyone looking for pet care. She's incredibly timely with updates and great pictures to let you know your pets are safe and secure when you are away. We have one older cat with medication requirements and another with a special diet. Saktah took care of everything and then some! Her photos, videos and messages about your pets are second to none. Would use her again and recommend to anyone wanting the best for their pets. A++”

About: Raised on a farm and a dog mom for 17 years, I’ve had animals at the center of my life since childhood. Caring for animals of all kinds is truly in my roots. I spent 13 years as a devoted dog mom to my late dachshund, Boston, and I now have a big, friendly rescue who has been by my side for 4 years. She’s a beautiful mix of Blue Tick Coonhound, American Foxhound, Lab, Bully, German Shepherd, and who knows what else, or as I like to call her, my Supermutt 🩷 Over the years, I’ve rescued dogs, cats, and other animals off the streets, and I’m constantly learning about animal health, behavior, and care so I’m prepared for any pet friend who comes into my home. Special skills: •Senior care: I’ve cared for two dogs into their senior years: my dachshund, Boston, and our family’s extra-large bully breed. I’m comfortable with older dogs, including slower walks, extra comfort, and medication schedules. I’m also comfortable administering injections if needed. •Anxious dogs and puppies: Boston was a very anxious pup, so I know how to help nervous dogs feel safe. I also have experience with puppies. •Training: I taught both of my dogs their basic commands, I’m currently taking a dog training course, and I plan to complete a pet CPR certification. •Dog-friendly home: My own dog is playful, loves to chill, and happily goes along with whatever her fur friends want. Availability: I’m available for drop-ins and walks in the evenings, and I can board low-maintenance dogs during the week since I work full time in an office Monday through Friday but I do take my own dog out in the mornings and again midday. My calendar on Rover will show is open Friday through Sunday and on holidays, but if you’re interested in weekday boarding, I’m happy to discuss it further. Friends, family, and neighbors have always turned to me when they need someone they can truly trust with their pets. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and genuine love. I’m present and engaged during my time at home, so your pet won’t just be waiting around they’ll be played with, walked, and genuinely cared for. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I have a partially fenced yard and a secure ground-anchored long lead for supervised outdoor time, so dogs can enjoy fresh air safely. I also live right next to a large park with trails, making it easy to get in enriching walks and outdoor adventures. My own dog Khaleesi is friendly and social with other dogs, so boarded pets will have a welcoming companion. I treat every animal in my care with the same love and attention I give my own, your pet will feel right at home.

“So far so very good! This is my first experience with a puppy and Paisley has provided valuable advice and has helped me so much. Paisley is extremely knowledgeable, caring and kind Leaving Charlotte for the day is difficult but knowing that Paisley will be dropping in puts my mind at ease. 100% recommend her!”

About: I have been walking and caring for my own personal animals - 2 dogs, cat, bird, hamsters since I was 5 years old. I also have been dog sitting and walking for numerous neighbors and friends in the area. I work during the day a full-time job. I am available early in the morning and after 4:00pm during the week. I am available on the weekends anytime of the day. I have a fenced in backyard that my 4 year old Brittany Spaniel, Maggie loves to run around and play ball. It is completely fenced in so she can't get out. I love to be outside playing with my dog and bring her on 3+ walks a day around town and at the local park.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since childhood, from growing up with a Labrador to caring for my own pets. With five years working in a grooming salon, I’m experienced in meeting the needs of all dogs, such as playful puppies, adult dogs, and seniors alike. I’m passionate about providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each dog’s personality and health. I’m currently a part-time PetSmart employee and a college student, which means I have weekday afternoons available for pet care. Weekends aren’t always ideal, but I’m happy to discuss arrangements and see what’s possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their usual routine so your pet feels comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, bathroom breaks, and of course lots of love and attention. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs; whether it’s helping a puppy burn off energy, giving extra patience to a shy dog, or offering gentle care for seniors. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

“She is absolutely wonderful with my two furbabies and saved my butt this weekend! Super communicative, on time and got my boy some good play time too! Highly recommend and would love to have her watch my chaos twins again ❤️❤️❤️”

About: I have owned and cared for many pets as well as working for the forest park zoo tending to animals and socializing with them, as well as working as a dog groomer and a dog kennel attendant. I am very passionate and serious about pet care, our fluffy friends deserve the best. I have plenty of experience with elderly and special needs animals, as well as experience administering medication. As someone who owns many animals of my own, a dog, a cat, a multitude of small animals and reptiles, my entire life consists of caring for animals. It’s my main passion. I am available for bookings all day Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and available for mornings every other day of the week! I am a trustworthy person able to remember the schedule of your pets and any extra care they may need. Due to working in grooming for so long, I am excellent in time management and understanding the body language of dogs. I love to take my own dogs outside and play with them with a ball or a toy to help them get enrichment. I am also incredibly interested in training and find respect and boundaries to be very important when forming a relationship with an animal.

“Everything was great, got pictures of our dog every day. I would use her again.”

“Breighanna is very thorough & keeps in good contact which we loved-it's great to get updates on your cats while you're away. Our cats required meds in the a.m. & p.m. and she handled it seamlessly! She really went above & beyond by taking time to play and making sure each cat was engaged! Would recommend her to anyone booking, this is someone with a true passion for detail and care with animals!”

About: I’m a CTRS and I have trained my dogs one of which is a a therapy dog that at times I will take to work. I normally do at least 15 minutes of training with my pups! I’m off Sunday Monday and Tuesday fully, and my partner is off Saturday. My day starts off walking my dogs then letting them outside to play. Your dog would be apart of that. I have a fenced backyard and a bunch of toys. The day starts off going for a walk around the block then I let the dogs run outside in the back. After that they come inside to relax and eat breakfast. I let them play in the house and sometimes chill out with their bone always supervised. 😊

About: As a dedicated dog sitter with over 6 years of experience, I pride myself on offering personalized and attentive care that goes above and beyond the standard. My passion for animals and commitment to their well-being is evident in every aspect of my service. Pet care isn’t just a job for me; it’s an integral part of my daily routine and a true passion. Despite working from 6 AM to 3 PM, I have seamlessly integrated pet care into my schedule, ensuring each furry client receives the attention and love they deserve. My day starts early, and before I begin my workday, I make time for morning walks, ensuring each dog gets the exercise and stimulation they need to start their day off right. During my work hours, I ensure that any pet in my care is comfortable and attended to, with regular breaks to provide quick check-ins, snacks, and affection. Once my workday ends at 3 PM, I dedicate the rest of my afternoon and evening to pet care. This includes longer walks, play sessions, and any specialized attention a pet might need. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a grooming session, or some cuddle time, I ensure each pet feels happy and engaged. Balancing pet care with my work schedule has taught me the importance of organization, reliability, and, most importantly, the joy that comes from spending time with animals. My dedication to this routine ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well-taken care of, no matter the time of day. Each walk is personalized, taking into account the dog’s temperament, energy level, and specific requirements. I prioritize safety and enjoyment, ensuring that each walk is a positive and enriching experience for your furry friend.
